Rules of thumbs said that every 50D pipe length results approximately 3 dB Sound Power Level (PWL) attenuation where D is in meter (m). This is presented in "Measures & Technique In Eliminating / Minimizing PWL". This post will base on this simple rule-of-thumbs to generate a simple equation for Sound Power Level attenuation due to pipe length.
Derivation
For every pipe length of 50D, the PWL loss will be 3 dB,
PWL loss per meter of pipe length = 3 / 50D = 0.06/D
Sound Power Level attenuation for any pipe length of L,
where
PWLLoss,L = PWL loss per meter pipe length (dB/m)
L = Pipe length (m)
D = Pipe internal diameter (m)
Following is typical graph for Unit PWL versus pipe ID.
